What You Look Like

That look...

So that's what you look like
It has been a while
since I last saw your face
and savored your smile

Yes, too, what you sound like
Your mellifluous voice
Ulysses and I both
endure it by choice

You came bravely to me
to straighten my tie
You stared at my collar
I stared at the sky

And that's what it feels like
as you look away
with that worrisome brow
when you saw me today
